Idle Power Grid
Start generating power and fulfill your client's requests! When you check a client request, you'll receive money and use it to buy upgraes like more battery capacity or more W/s generation.
THIS GAME IS UNDER DEVELOPMENT
So, expect bugs or any feature that is poorly managed or implemented. It'll be fixed soon!
JOIN THE ALPHA TESTING!
For the minimun price, you can test the next updates that will come soon to the game!
To see what's being changed or what's changing while this alpha version is getting updated, look at the "ALPHA_UPDATES.md" archive. If you have any problems, you found any bug, or you want to make a suggestion, let me know!

Im a simple man. I received an email saying TheShadowMaster released a new game. Now I play. I know this is the first version and I know you will add a lot to this game. I'm eagerly waiting for new releases
That should be W, not W/s. Watts is already a rate of getting energy. W/s would mean that that rate is increasing or something.
When I got to 9 W/s I realized I was making energy faster than I could use it, and now I'm just saving up for a substation because nothing else matters without that. At least, I'm hoping that adding another slot means I get requests twice as fast.
Edit: Didn't help. What's the point of upgrading power production if I can only make money as fast as requests arrive?
Just a heads up, income is relative to generation rate, not capacity or amount of client
I'm gonna be hard on this review, because selling a Paid Alpha for a game that has
1- No Gameloop
2- Doable on ChatGPT in less than 2 hours
is crazy to me !
-> After having 15 KW/sc, useless to get more, since you are rapidly full.
-> Battery upgrades are useless, since the request are always too low
-> List upgrade is useless since you are always capped in battery so you can accept them instantly, doesn't matter if your list queue can be 9 long or more.
-> No prestige system
-> No way to upgrade the request amount/time waiting
-> Base price are ridiculously high but it doesn't matter since there is no gameloop.
REally bad game, no offense.
The game is under development, as you can figure out, Atom Idle (my other game) has been building for weeks, but I released it after its development, that's why it had prestige and subjects and many other stuff since I've been testing and playing it before, and initially it was a personal game for me. Secondly, I've not posted any update to Atom Idle in these days, not even in Alpha, because I've been working on this game. This time, I've released this earlier to see your feedback and see which way it can go, to make it the best game it can be. And no, It's not made by ChatGPT, if it was made by ChatGPT, I wouldn't stop updating Atom Idle with more AI created stuff and this game would have more stuff. If the emoji on the title is bringing you doubts, that's because I'm not an artist or something similiar, I'm just a programmer/game developer, and I didn't know which portrait photo for the game I'd choose, so I just put a emoji there.
But anyways, I've noted every single thing you posted, that will be implemented for 0.1.X (balance changes and bug fixes) and for 0.2.0 (more content, like prestige).
And about the Alpha, is the same strategy I followed for Atom Idle. I just keep updating as quick as I can to make the people who don't pay to play the game as quick as possible. If you don't want the Alpha version, just don't buy it! Every feedback, even on buyers or for non-buyers are so welcome!
So, thanks for your feedback, and really sorry if you didn't liked the game :)
Hello,
I know it's under developement, the fact you've made another game is also a point to understand that's what there is not a game, it's a prototype, wich I'm totally fine with it, contextualize a little bit.
I come and try a new idle/inncremental, I see a paid alpha for a "non-game" that's why I said it at the beggining off my message.
Didn't said you've made it on chatgpt, said it could have been done on chatGPT since there is like, nothing in the game.
I know you are a simple programmer/game developer, again, not blaming you for that, just saying, that anyone ask for monetary support it's out of respect of the consumer to propose something at least relatable (wich you would probably agree it's not)
No offense, man, but it's free to play the game, and it is pretty obvious that the game is still in development. You can play the free version and decide if you want to pay for the alpha or not. You could give some actual constructive criticism and help the creator, or I guess you can just leave the comments you left, and do nothing productive at all.
There is nothing offensive in my commentary, it's developed and well explained, I just explained the reason why it's "hard to read"
Reviews are heere to review a game ^^
I did not say your comment was offensive, simply unproductive.
Ooooh a new game! I have to check it out since atom idle is so good!
yeah!! That's why I've not been posting new updates or alphas to Atom Idle lately 😄
that makes sense
